Biografía

Ralph Shove played Rugby in the first team of Uppingham School before attending Trinity College, Cambridge. For Cambridge he rowed in The Boat Race in 1912 and 1913, losing both years to Oxford. Shove was later called to the bar at Inner Temple. During World War I he served as captain in the Royal Field Artillery in France in November 1914, being wounded once. He resumed his rowing activities after the war and was captain of the Leander crew that won the silver medal in the eights at the 1920 Antwerpen Olympics. In 1945, he was appointed as a County Court Judge and Justice of the Peace. In the following years, Shove was chairman at the former courts of quarter sessions of Lincolnshire. His brother was the prominent British economist Gerald Shove.
